My point was just that even when you take the “when life gives you lemons” approach sometimes you won’t be getting that lemonade after all. As such, I also didn’t think it to be the best phrase for what (I thought) you were trying to convey.
I agree with your reply, 100%. Thinking a bit more as I write this, I may be wrong above (in this reply; about the wrong phrase) and it is, in fact, the best idiom. Not sure. But now I’m definitely on the fence, at least (compared to above, where I was on one side of the fence).
